What are some tv shows you just couldn't get into? They can be popular?

For me, Greys Anatomy and Vampire Diaries. I thought Greys anatomy was predictable and because I come from a family of healthcare workers, I can't begin to tell you how unrealistic that show is. For me that really lowers the quality of the show. I couldn't get into Vampire Diaries because I thought the main character Elena, was very one dimensional, needy, and bland. She reminded me of Bella from Twilight.

Everyone says that Walking Dead it GREAT!! and Game of Thrones, but I haven't found the 'hook' episode that makes me want to watch!!Any recommendations from fans of either?I ABSOLUTELY HATED Star Trek the Next Generation, until the 'Inner Light,' and 'Darmok' and 'Lessons'. After seeing those, and how they developed the captain, I went back and watched, and it was so much more than I thought, at first! Several other series have been like that too!! Just needing that 'Hook' episode that makes me need to know what happens!

I'm happy you gave Next Gen a chance. Honestly it's not easy to get into because of that first season, and that's because I believe Gene Roddenberry (who was a well known pinko) had more direct involvement in the first season. It's why the characters come off as so self-righteous in the early parts of the show.

When you officially get to the very first Borg episode (which is in Season 2), that's the point I've noticed where people began getting grabbed.

Well game of thrones doesn't really have a "hook episode", it sort of just slowly builds up until you're sucked in. I didn't particularly like it until halfway through season 2 and it was only by the end of the seconds season that I really started to like it. Now, I think it's the best show ever made (at least from what I've seen). I recommend you watch the first two seasons of it, I know it's a lot of episodes but GoT has so many plots going on at once that it takes a while to start appreciating the intricacy of it all.

Not so much cutting into 'porn' for me, but I don't know if I want to commit to TWO SEASONS, to get hooked, when I am WAAAAAAAAAAAAAYYYYY overdue for a review of the original Wonder Woman, with Linda Carter, and just after that, Profiler, with Ally Walker (WOW!!)Much more a fan of voyager, than Next Gen, especially at the beginning of the fourth season, with Seven of Nine!

Orange is the New Black, and Breaking Bad. I watched the first three or four episodes of each and didn't go back to them. Agents of S. H. I. E. L. D is another. My dad likes it, but I didn't get the appeal.

I would've said The Walking Dead too, it's been on for years and I hadn't watched it, but in the last few months I started watching it and couldn't put it down lol. I'd seen random episodes before that were on, but starting it from the beginning kept my interest, and the last episode left things on a huge cliffhanger.

At the moment? Any other show except for SUPERNATURAL as I really couldn't seem to get into any of them. Maybe it's because I favor antihero type of characters like Sam and Dean Winchester.

Although I'm looking forward to watching Ash vs. The Evil Dead when I have time this summer. And I'm also looking forward to watch Daredevil at some point but that is only because of The Punisher being in it.

you see 24 is something I could never get into.. I tried, it was interesting, but not enough for me to keep watching it. nonetheless, prison break, supernatural, 24 all deal with similar concepts, give it another go, you might like it.

Breaking Bad. I watched it until season 3 I think (I stopped watching it when the distributor chicken guy took out his competition. I think it was an amazing show and definitely one of the best shows ever made and it deserves all the attention it got, however it just wasn't for me. It didn't really grab my attention, there wasn't enough mystery to it. It was just a guy growing a business, it was too predictable and it was too focused on one plot.

funny enough my girlfriend LOVES greys anatomy and me being in med school like to watch it with her every now and then just to point out everything that's wrong with it and diagnose patients in a couple of seconds. She suprisingly finds it funny even though it would annoy the shit out of most people... one of the many reasons I love her so much hahaha

That's awesome. I am training to be a certified nurses assistant then I will work my way up to a licensed practical nurse then possibly a registered nurse. I love to correct Greys anatomy even though it annoys my family. I do the same thing with movies adapted from books.

Seinfeld (Never laughed at anything they did), The Big Bang Theory (Just an Updated Frasier which wasn't that good either), Keeping Up With The Kardashians (Why the torture), Survivor (Who The Fuck Cares!), The Cleveland Show (Obvious Reasons), Supernatural and Vampire Diaries (Male Models pretending to act) King of Queens (Patton Oswalt and Jerry Stiller ruin everything), Everybody Loves Raymond (Not Me), House (past the first season when I realized it was just a Scrubs rip off) ), Lost Girl (Horrible idea for a "Network" show), Shameless (1 episode killed it for me) and Gotham is getting annoying.

There was this TV Western called "Deadwood" a few years back, about the real life Black Hills mining town in the 1870s and 1880s. But it just had so much profanity, and one profanity in particular, that it became a JOKE, and only lasted three seasons:

the walking dead for the simple fact gorge a Romero had some bad things to say about the show even though he helped develop it in a small way. plus im burnt out in zombie things with how they over sex the show or movie.

Star Trek and Dr Who. I want to get into it but the thought that I'd have to dedicate 23 days straight (546 hours) to watch all of Star Trek or 15 and a half days for all of Dr Who , that is not a hill climb , that's Mount Olympus.

It's been said a few times already, but Game of Thrones. I see it as like this poor, overdone imitation of LOTR where GRR Martin thought Tolkien wasn't creating the perfect story because he didn't feel the need to include sibling incest.

Wish I could say more really, there are so many shows I just outright don't even attempt watching cause they don't grab me. It just all looks the same.

Fairy Tail, One Piece, Code Geass, Supernatural, Vampire Diaries, Degrassi, the list goes on it really is endless. I don't watch TV. The only show I'm into right now is The Walking Dead and I'm two seasons behind due to the fact that I'm not a TV type kind of guy.

They were smart. Finding out who A was, was incredibly anticlimactic. I gave up when A tried saying she was sorry for all the things she did. It's totally not fair to the fans to make this huge build up of A and then try to make it go away with an apology.

Exactly. The producers shot themselves in the foot by making this huge build up of A, and when they do reveal A, fans were confused and asking who is that instead of being shocked. Plus I also hate that the producers try to say that A is just misunderstood. I absolutely hate when movie producers make a villain and then try to convince fans they're misunderstood. The best villains are the ones who are truly evil possibly bordering on psychopath.

Agents of Shield. I love Marvel comics and I enjoyed the films - even if I thought they were train wrecks :P - but I really couldn't get into AoS. Uh... In terms of anime rather than TV shows, Attack on Titan is supposed to be really good but I never really got into it.

Supernatural - annoying as fuck characters; too much fanservice, not enough story (which was cliche). It's just glorified Twilight. I'm actually gutted this show was executed the way it was because paranormal and supernatural stuff HIGHLY fascinates me and I had great hopes for this show. Alas...

I wouldn't even consider watching shows like Grey's Anatomy or Vampire Diaries - those are mediocre at best, to me personally they're bottom tier.

1. The Walking Dead- for me, zombie story will only be interesting in a movie, not a series.

2. Glee - I don't know why people really love it, maybe musical series is not my thing i guess, the first 2 seasons is good, but later, it's boring with too much unnecessary drama, too much songs. again, musical story shouldn't be a series for me, people like me get bored so easily

I couldn't get into shows like Steven Universe, The Walking Dead, Avatar the last airbender, Breaking Bad, or Game of Thrones. There;s a bunch more, but I'm too lazy to list themI found SU's community to be the absolute worst. I also couldn't get into its "lel so randum XD" talking. I believe the only enjoyable characters were Garnet and Lapis.The Walking Dead (tried the game and watched a few eps as well). Just didn't like it overallEveryone thinks my name is based off of the main character and frankly I've watched this show and wasted my time trying to like it.As for the other two they have been spoiled way too much and I don't want to put in the effort of trying to watch it.

Game of Thrones.That show sometimes makes me feel dumb. And there's just something about it that doesn't click for me. I tried getting into it for like... 3 times. Never got past the first few episodes. And them killing the wolf rubbed me the wrong way too. I don't like shows that kill animals.

I feel the same about Greys Anatomy. I tried watching what many fans consider the best, most intense episode and wanted to scream when a patient's appendix burst and her nurses were discussing personal issues. If you are open to cop dramas, I recommend Bones. It's all accurate because it's based on a real live murder solving couple.
